Our daughter got married at The Willows at Rider Ranch. The wedding party stayed at this home. It was perfect! Highly recommend it.

We had a wonderful stay over July 4. We took our hound and spent day trips getting to know the Coeur d'Alene area. We tried out the local hikes right off the house! The views are spectacular and the house was so comfortable- best vacation!
Owner’s Response: “Christine, thank you so much for being our guest this 4th of July. We appreciate your kind words! First, it means a lot to us that you had a wonderful experience at our nature retreat; and second that you shared your experience online. We hope to see you again at Mountain Light Retreat.”
We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful 40-Acre Nature Retreat. The view is gorgeous. Unfortunately it is already booked for the timeframe we could come next year.

We enjoyed staying in this remote home that also offered close proximity to Coeur d'Alene. It was clean and very well stocked for our two week stay and was very comfortable for four guests. We also brought our two dogs that enjoyed the property as much as we did. I would recommend this house for those that enjoy the serenity of nature and being away from the hustle of the city.
Fabulous private location and breathtaking views! Our family enjoyed the comforts of the very well stocked home and hit Hiawatha trail and Silverwood. Such a fun trip with nighttime dips in the hot tub. We would definitely come again!
